Guest Photo – Marvin De Jong, 4/11/16

 

From Marv:
Taken on the North Platte River, in 2015, at sunset, with the Sandhill Cranes coming to the river to roost for the night.  They roost standing in the river to protect themselves from predators.  In the photo you can see a group of Sandhill Cranes have already landed.  Thousands more will be there in a little while.
